<maestrojed> saml did you get it figured out> | |
* pingu9 has quit (Ping timeout: 244 seconds) | |
<saml> maestrojed, no.. to me, 100x100 pixel image is 100x100 pixel everywhere.. it might appear smaller or larger depending on display's dpi | |
<maestrojed> saml one dot does equal one pixel. Its about how many dots or pixels fit in one inch. | |
<saml> yah .. i think we're saying the same thing | |
<maestrojed> saml we are not | |
<maestrojed> an image is encoded in pixels and dip | |
<maestrojed> dpi | |
<saml> 100x100 pixel is 100x100 pixel | |
<oojacoboo> dpi = printing | |
<saml> oh i see | |
<saml> lol oojacoboo | |
<maestrojed> no you are missing a variable | |
<saml> you should tweet that | |
<oojacoboo> pixel density = screen version of dpu | |
<oojacoboo> dpi* | |
<maestrojed> dpi != printing | |
<saml> pixel is pixel | |
<maestrojed> I disagree | |
<maestrojed> On a retina display a pixel is much much smaller then on a non retina display | |
<saml> i doubt images have dpi | |
<saml> maybe as metadata | |
<maestrojed> saml I know that they do | |
<saml> dpi is about display device | |
<maestrojed> do you want help or not | |
<saml> you are just wrong.. | |
<maestrojed> Ok, go for it then | |
<saml> i checked jpeg , png, bmp spec.. dpi is a "metadata" | |
<maestrojed> I promise you, you are very wrong | |
<oojacoboo> dpi is not for screens | |
<oojacoboo> it's for printing | |
<maestrojed> oojacoboo wrong. | |
<oojacoboo> not wrong | |
<maestrojed> oojacoboo retina displays have a different dpi | |
<oojacoboo> they have pixel density | |
<oojacoboo> not dpi | |
<saml> retina display is not image | |
<maestrojed> what the fuck do you think dpi is | |
<oojacoboo> dots per inch |
